Raleigh, N.C. — Thousands of educators and supporters gathered at Halifax Mall on Friday, May 1, to demand lawmakers pass a state budget and increase funding for public schools. The North Carolina Association of Educators organized the march starting at 10 a.m.; teachers from Charlotte, Buncombe and other districts traveled by bus and requested leave to attend. Districts reported thousands of staff absences; Charlotte estimates more than 3,000 callouts while Buncombe County reported nearly 600 leave requests, prompting school closures and proposed calendar changes this week. NCAE President Tamika Walker Kelly called for immediate budget action; State Rep. Zack Hawkins blamed Senate delays as lawmakers face negotiations in the coming days.
